BD Pharmingen™ PE Mouse Anti-Nkx6.1
Clone R11-560 (RUO)
Flow cytometric analysis of Nkx6.1 expression in mouse pancreatic tumor (insulinoma) cells. Beta-T-C6 (ATCC, CRL-11506™) cells were fixed with BD Cytofix™ fixation buffer (Cat. No. 554655) and permeabilized with BD Phosflow™ Perm buffer III (Cat. No. 558050). The cells were stained with either PE Mouse IgG1, κ isotype control (dashed line, Cat. No. 554680) or PE Mouse Anti-Nkx6.1 monoclonal antibody (solid line) at matched concentrations. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD LSRFortessa™ flow cytometry system.

Preparation And Storage
Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.
Product Notices
- This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application.
- All other brands are trademarks of their respective owners.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.

Antibody Details
R11-560
The R11-560 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to human and mouse homeobox protein Nkx6.1. The transcription factor Nkx6.1 plays a role in pancreatic islet beta cell development through the regulation of HNF1a and insulin genes. Nkx6.1 is considered to be a highly specific transcription factor marking pancreatic beta islet cells, where it is expressed in both developing and mature cells. In addition, Nkx6.1 functions as a transcriptional repressor induced by the Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway in fate determination of several neuronal cell types. During antibody development, the purified R11-560 monoclonal antibody was found to detect Nkx6.1 by western blot and indirect immunofluorescent staining followed by flow cytometric analysis or imaging analysis.

Format Details
PE
R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
